Ark Undead

He felt like he had seen something extraordinary. But the Undead didn't have time to dwell on it, as Skyfire beside him continued to speak.
"Actually, I rarely come to the downtown area at night. The atmosphere here is too noisy and can easily affect my mood for doing experiments."
The vehicle stopped at the traffic light.
Tianhuo tapped her fingers lightly on the steering wheel as she continued.
"So I'll move to that kind of place, even though it's a bit remote, at least it'll be quiet."
"It's a good place to do experiments."
The immortal nodded.
The two were silent for a moment, then the car started up again.
There was some traffic, but we still arrived at our destination just before the dinner was about to start.
This is a high-rise building, one of the most luxurious hotels in Lentinium.
Someone rented the entire banquet hall to hold a banquet here.
The waiter opened the car door for Tianhuo and took the car keys and tip from him.
The Undead got off the vehicle and came to stand behind Skyfire. He looked up at the towering building that seemed to reach the clouds.
Suddenly, he felt something grab him.
Looking down, Tianhuo was leaning against her side, and she took the initiative to reach out and link her arm with hers.
"?" The Undead looked at Skyfire in confusion, and Skyfire also raised its head to meet the Undead's gaze.
"How can you attend a banquet without a male companion?"
Tianhuo raised its proud head, a blush rising on its fair neck, like the noblest white swan in the play Swan Lake bathed in the fiery glow of the setting sun.
At this moment, she revealed her little scheme, and a sly smile appeared on her lips as she narrowed her eyes.
"Besides being my assistant, today you're my date. Remember that!"
The Undead remained silent for a moment.
This invitation is still not easy to get.
Tianhuo changed direction and began to seek knowledge through other methods.
But it makes you unable to get angry.
With a soft sigh, the Undead lowered his head slightly and obediently spoke.
"As ordered."

“I don’t know if you’ve considered the collaboration we discussed last time, Mr. Lai Ning.”
"That's a great suggestion, but my company is currently experiencing some cash flow issues, so we may need to postpone the process for a while. I'm very sorry."
"Haha, it's already great that Mr. Lai Ning has this intention. I look forward to the day when we can achieve a win-win situation together."
"Cheers to our business!"
"cheers!"
Upon entering the venue, one can hear various conversations.
In the background, a hired orchestra was performing live. The soft sounds of classical instruments mingled with the conversations of the guests, along with the aromas of perfume, wine, and food in the air, creating the main melody of the banquet.
When Skyfire and the Undead arrived at the venue, some people quickly turned their attention to them.
Of course, what they were looking at wasn't the immortals, but heavenly fire.
As a renowned and talented sorcerer in Victoria, Tianhuo's reputation was at its zenith.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that each member of the Staff of Kings is a genius warlock, and each has their own strengths and weaknesses.
However, Tianhuo, being of noble birth and possessing exceptional looks, naturally attracted many men in aristocratic circles.
Of course, strength is also an important factor. Many of the Originium spells that Skyfire researched were handed over to the Sorcerer's Guild or various schools for other sorcerers to study and reference.
This technique is certainly not a secret. If everyone keeps their research findings tightly hidden, there will be no progress.
Aside from its core techniques, all other components or enhancements can naturally be traded.
Yes, in the eyes of warlocks, this is all a transaction. In fact, these spells come with copyright fees; to learn them, one must pay a considerable sum.
This is why, despite many people possessing the talent for Originium Arts, few become sorcerers, and even fewer become qualified sorcerers.
Because of money, everything costs money, and the poor can't afford to attend sorcerer schools, nor can they buy enough spells from the sorcerer's guild to learn. Not to mention the various casting materials and equipment, which cost a fortune; buying just one item could bankrupt a family, not to mention the subsequent maintenance costs.
Infected individuals, on the other hand, do not have this concern; they can experiment with their surgical techniques without restraint.
As long as you're not worried about dying too quickly, there's no problem at all.
Tianhuo naturally knew that his appearance would attract a lot of attention.
Despite this, she clung tightly to the immortal's arm, refusing to let go.
To her, the Undead was like a shield. The moment he agreed to be Skyfire's companion, the Undead tonight was Skyfire's most effective shield against those annoying attacks.
"Many people are watching you."
The Undead naturally noticed this as well. He lowered his head and whispered something to the Heavenly Fire.
"Should we loosen up a little?"
"What did you say?"
Skyfire glanced blankly at the Undead. The sounds around the banquet were quite loud, and the Undead's voice was a typical low-frequency sound, so it was normal that he couldn't hear it clearly.
Just as she was about to ask the undead to speak louder, she felt a gust of hot air blow past her ear.
The Undead Man bent down again and leaned close to the furry ear on Tianhuo's head.
"I'm saying, a lot of people are watching you. Why don't you relax a little?"
The heat surged instantly, and a blush spread down her neck, leaving a charming pink hue.
The moment Tianhuo felt the wind and breath around his ears, he was already on the verge of losing consciousness.
No man had ever been able to get so close and speak to her in such an intimate manner.
The dry, hoarse voice unique to the Undead entered through the ears that had drooped down on Tianhuo's head, and echoed repeatedly in her mind, bringing a unique shock.
"..."
The immortal looked down and felt his arms being held even tighter.
Strange, why is the skyfire so strange today?
He considered it perfectly normal to avoid killing people.
If you can't hear me, then come closer and speak.
But to outsiders, such behavior was undoubtedly a bit too intimate.
In the entire aristocratic circle, Tianhuo, who never showed any courtesy to anyone, actually accepted such an intimate gesture from a man. Anyone with eyes could see that Tianhuo bowed his head purely because he was nervous.
Her skin, gradually turning a rosy red, complemented her red dress, making her look like a blooming red rose.
So, people were surprised. Who was this man? How could he win over Victoria's famous thorny rose?
It was already surprising that Tianhuo, who always went his own way, would bring someone to the banquet, let alone a man.
Someone was already walking towards the Undead with a wine glass in hand.
Most of them were young masters who had been humiliated by Tianhuo before, while others were business partners who had a good relationship with Tianhuo and wanted to come over to say hello.
It wasn't out of some strange jealousy that he wanted to cause trouble for the immortals.
There was definitely some displeasure, but more than that, I wanted to find out who this person really was.
It's all about connections and relationships. If the Undying Man really does have some extraordinary background, then even if he can't establish a connection with Tianhuo, getting to know this man who seems to have some influence would be a good choice.
Where are there so many idiots in novels who would fight over a woman?
Those people were either hotheads or fools being used as pawns.
The most common outcome for such people is that they are manipulated and killed, becoming victims in the struggle.
Noticing someone walking towards him, the Undead instinctively straightened up and scanned his surroundings with his eyes.
This subconscious action alone made those who were looking at them stop in their tracks.
it's too cold.
The Undead were merely subconsciously observing and scanning, unconsciously adopting battlefield habits, clearly observing everyone's location and movements.
But such a gaze is rather terrifying to pampered noblemen.
It felt dangerous, like being watched by a raging flood or a ferocious beast; the shadow of death surrounded me, chilling me to the bone.
This further highlights the extraordinary nature of the immortals.
After a brief pause, people continued walking and gathered around the undead.
It's not that they're not afraid, but since the undead have come to the banquet, it's impossible for them to completely avoid interacting with others.
In many people's minds, his gaze was a demonstration, a means of asserting his status.
But to everyone's surprise, the first person to come to the immortal's side was a woman.
"Wandering Soul... Mr. Undead, good evening."
The white-haired female guard stopped in front of the undead, bowed slightly to him, and displayed her respectful attitude without reservation.
She almost let slip that it was really inappropriate to use their private names in such a public setting.
"Hannah".
The immortal spoke and greeted the large white cat in front of him.
You look exceptionally handsome today.
This isn't a compliment; Hannah's outfit today was indeed very stylish.
Vina's carefully chosen black suit was perfectly suited to Hannah's physique, honed by years of training and street brawls. Her long white hair had also been carefully styled, no longer draped loosely over her head as before.
